There is also a tree in the shape of a "Y". Now he says to Misty she may want to ask herself why she is the first (or something like that). On that tree was a "knot". Now could it be that "knot" is actually an amulet which is the Immunity Idol. I mean does it have to be big like other Immunity Idols?

I kinda thought that she was on the right track with the "behind" clue; I also think that the breaking of the skulls was symbolic for the first challenge, (face it the challenge was kinda dumb and really a luck challenge so why do it? Maybe its a clue). So my guess is behind the skull. But the Y tree is a really cool theory.

Found out about this website ( immunityidol.net ) on another board which has great vidcaps....especially this one which could be a MAJOR clue. Remember what I thought about water being an element on Survivor, plus the "Why" clue? Take a look. What are your thoughts?

Exile Island May Have Its Own Immunity Idol Clues; Jeff's Clue Was A Last-Minute AdditionFebruary 7, 2006by Andy Dehnart

During the premiere of Survivor Panama, Jeff Probst told the show's first inhabitant of Exile Island about the island, and then said that he'd just given her a clue. Dumbass Misty thought Jeff said something about the word "behind," so she dug around in the dirt behind where they were all standing, where the immunity idol probably was not located. But Jeff also mentioned the water supply and the fact that, without fire, it was useless.

As some astute viewers noticed, when the camera focused on the barrel of water, the tree next to it clearly had the letters Y and C written on it. (That, or the tree clearly has a vine that died leaving behind pieces that look like the letters Y and C.) Showing this seems deliberate, and could be a further clue, especially since Jeff mentioned that he'd given Misty her first clue.

However, Entertainment Weekly's Dalton Ross, who spent the night on Exile Island before the show started production, reveals that Jeff Probst's clue was in one sentence, which "was actually a last-second addition" and that, "Right before the castaways showed up, Probst and Mark Burnett were perfecting the exact wording, with Jeff practicing it over and over to get it."

Dalton, being a big cluetease, also says he knows what the clue means, but refuses to tell us, because he's mean. He writes, "Now, Burnett told us the meaning of the clue shortly after, but since spoilers are the bane of my existence, I will refrain from sharing it here. (Sorry.)"

Update: A reader reports that, while Jeff talked about the island's clues, a tree with the letter F on it was clearly visible behind him. While I don't have a screen cap of it, that seems to confirm that the clues are written on the trees.

“Exile Island, Day 1 (Jeff’s Verbal Clue to the First Exile) You also have a lot of time to think about “why” fate chose you to be the first one out here. Which is “why” immunity is already so important …."

On same piece of paper at the bottom:

“Clue 2 - Day 4. It is above the tide line.”

On the other side is a drawing of the island and a section showing where the idol is NOT.

Bruce (PI): says he thinks it’s right against the cliff some place. He says he’s going to find the immunity idol. He doesn't get the fire started. Doing some sort of martial arts on the island now. Said he’s doing it to focus and get his mind ready

hmmm so am I really supposed to believe they give Bruce a stright forward clue like "its above the tide line" when they gave Misty the most cryptic clue ever?? I dont know how reliable Harold is but since Puddin is bringing his post over I would think he's fairly credible however on this im calling BS. If they give someone a clue that blatant on day 4 its gonna be as bad if not worse then Big Brothers' Summer of Secrets that turned into the Summer of next episode we will give something away and it made the show suck a lot more. Just remember Gary found the Idol in Guatemala not only because he followed Judd into the woods but also becuase he knew that the Myans worshiped a certain tree and decided to look in that tree.

hmmm, actually, i think telling them it's above the tide line doesn't give them much. it's a good guess without the clue. can't afford the idol to get accidentally washed out to sea. just elimates the perimeter of the island and nothing inland.

Im not saying they might not say that at some point im just saying that if he is saying that is how its gonna go down I dont believe it.
